Especially For Babies

Both Realbirth and Jersey City Parenting offer these classes and I teach them both. They are fun and a wonderful way to connect with your baby. Call them directly for information and to register. If you want a private infant massage class, call me at 201-927-0648. These classes are for babies 1 to 5 months old, before they crawl.

NutriSleuth™ Food, Ingredient & Nutrition Analysis for Allergies, Medical & Wellness We look to food for nourishment, but what nourishes one may harm another.
The founders of the NutriSleuth iPhone Mobile App are more than a little familiar with special dietary needs – Valerie Daley RD CD-N is a Registered Dietitian and Paula Patrice is a technologist with severe food allergies. Together they are helping Moms, families, nutrition professionals and everyone else who just wants to know what’s okay to eat.

The app covers chronic diseases like diabetes and cardiac conditions, all of the top food allergies like gluten, dairy and peanut and even includes an option to add lifestyle choices such as Kosher, MSG-free and High Fructose Corn Syrup-free.  Scan product UPCs with an iPhone, enter your dietary preferences and instantly you have a Yes or a No in the blink of an eye! Isn’t technology amazing?
